Building AI MVPs: Testing Demand, Model Quality, and Cost
An AI MVP has a different job: prove that a specific user will adopt, trust, and value it inside a real workflow, while showing which assumptions should shape the next investment.Demo Without DemandA model can look impressive in a demo and still fail to solve a workflow users will adopt. We define the user, problem, business outcome, and success signal before the build expands.Unproven AI FeasibilityModel quality, retrieval, latency, cost, data readiness, and human oversight must work together. We test these constraints before they become scale-stage surprises.Overbuilt First ReleaseToo much scope slows learning and raises investment before evidence exists.
